Question to the Department for International Development:

To ask Her Majesty’s Government where rice supplied by the Department for International Development for internally displaced people in Kachin State, Burma, is purchased; and which companies transport the rice.

DFID partners purchase rice for internally displaced people in Kachin State from a variety of sources and work with local organisations on the delivery of the rice. Given the sensitive operating environment, we do not provide detailed information on suppliers or transporters of rice.
